Sweet irony
ctibodoe, At last something we are in complete agreement on where you said: I believe the human condition is the quest for freedom and self determination. And every group of people should have the chance to decide for themselves. I have NOTHING against democracy....and I also believe that it is the best form of government around. Where we seem to disagree is where we would force democracy on a people that didn't want it or worse would reject it just because it was being forced on them. Allowing them to choose for themselves...they will probably choose democracy....but the choice must be theirs. But we must be open to the possibility that they will choose something else....who knows? I've enjoyed the discussion.
